bigspirit Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 Wanting to try out a couple buzz baits as it’s a presentation I haven’t tried much. I’d like to get one with 2 blades as I’ve heard/read you can keep them on top at a slower speed. Any recommendations? Quote
DaubsNU1 Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 I prefer triple bladed buzz baits...they can be worked slower than the doubles in my experience. Quote

Brett's_daddy Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 Try https://brabecbuzzbaits.com/. I have a couple and while I haven't really used them much yet they are quality constructed and you're supporting a small family run business instead of a giant corporation. Quote
Super User Deleted account Posted May 16, 2022 Super User Posted May 16, 2022 I've tried all sort of buzz baits, and the standard, boring, 2 blade aluminum bladed ones are the ones I've settled on, I just don't see an advantage to the others. Quote

Agree. You can use a BIC pen and curl the blade tips more or just slightly straighten the blade tips out to make a buzzbait speed up or slow down Thanks Zell Rowland 1 Quote

bigspirit Posted May 17, 2022 Author Posted May 17, 2022 Ah gotcha. I think I may have thrown a buzz bait literally “a time or two” a decade ago while in high school but that’s been it. On a side note, I was in a local shop today and while they did not have the double bladed Picasso, they did have the Squealer. I played around with it in my office and it certainly had some squeak to it out of the box, but on the way home I held it out the window and I can really tell it made a difference. It’s in front of a box fan now in the garage but it is definitely getting almost “obnoxiously” loud Quote

I've fished my Cavitrons side by side against my D & M Easy Roller and Slow Roller(brass clacker). For me the plastic quad blade stays on top at a much slower speed. 2 Quote
